Chalk me up as a fan of this one.
Not big on TV. Don't really like being a slave to a schedule. So far, in my lifetime, I've only been a fan of a small handful of TV shows that I followed semi-religiously ---
Simpsons,
Seinfeld,
NYPD Blue,
Crime Story ,
Millennium,
Wiseguy , a few others I'm forgetting. All the rest I could take or leave. ( Haven't even seen a single episode of
Homicide,
6 Ft.Under or
Sopranos but I want to and whatever little I've seen of
Buffy ,
Smallville and
Sex and the City I thought was pretty damn awful. )
The plots do waver from time to time but I like this particular cocktail- -- the
noir tendencies, the police procedural mechanisms, the character dynamics. And the writing is almost always solid (
Unfriendly Skies,
Blood Drops, the two-part pilot) I have high hopes for
CSI Miami because of Caruso. And I suppose we part ways on William Petersen, gurang. I've always been a fan of his since
To Live and Die In L.A.. (Same with Caruso.)
Surprisingly, though, I have to double-check the name of the rest of the cast even after I've been marathoning my DVDs this past weekend. I keep referring to the black guy as
Alien 4 and the other guy as
jawline. Only Jorja Fox registers but that's because she's hot.
I'm not as anal as I used to be ,I guess.
But good show.
CSI:London sounds intrguing. But
CSI:Tokyo that I'd see. For sure, the crimes are going to be way way more bizarre.
